leds were put out a while back and misrepresented and over marketed and not proven CHECK out kessils the only true LED the rest are stop lights in new housings straight up.

1000 watt hps = 110,000 lumes ! OMG ! what type of lumes does LEDS puts out ? my 400 watt Hps 55,000 from HTGsupply. I have tried CFl's dont impress me but do work ok... LEDS i have tried they word better than CFl'S but didnt impress me. 400 watt HPS impresses me !

I now run a HydroGrow 205w LED in a DR60. The plants love it, especially in veg ... my temps are only a couple degrees above ambient with minimal venting. I sleep soundly without big vent fan noise nor fire anxiety, even when I am away for a few days.

he is correct Kessil is on the leading of technology and if your really interested look up Dicon the company that makes Kessil LEDS they been around long time and have been doing LED research for years. They have a better focus of light and penetration and small light weight package. Johnny Cash is right most other LEDs are stoplights in comparison. I run a 8x8x7 secrect jardin tent with 2 600hps and 2 h150 kessil leds and the difference had been amazing. I plan on using 2 blue h150 between my shop lights in my veg room and bumping my flower room up too 4 h150 magentas hanging around the 2 600 hps. The penetration of this supplementary lighting is amazing.

I will veg with LED but I refuse to take my hps out of my flower room it really seems to help bud density and production.

do not mix led with hps. hps waste a lot of lumens because anting over 680 nm inhibits resin production. so even though hps gives a better yield it will not compare with led's for potency/ crystals. check out skunk magazine it explains it all
